I just wasted the last three days grinding the life out of me in the arena trying to get the 4* Nightcrawler. The only character I love the most and I hoped my 1.7M would be enough, but nope, only ended in the 11% ranking, thus, more useless shards. The one character, ONE, character I wanted the most and I can't get him cause there are just so many other people with higher levels and more time then I have to waste life grinding away all day and night. I stayed up till 6am for two of the three days grinding away, did the best I could between working, sleeping and eating, you know, the necessities of life and still, STILL, couldn't get enough. I'm tired and done! I don't have to time or money to waste on this game any longer. The crystal drop rates are pathetic, the amount of shards needed to get the higher level catalyst crystals and alpha catalysts are insane and impossible to get. The level of points needed to win a arena contest is beyond ridiculous, plus the time needed to achieve 2,3,4 million points in absolutely insane. I don't have time for this nonsense. Someone let me know when the requirements come down to some acceptable level where a casual player can get some enjoyment out of the game.
One character, ONE! That's all I wanted and now I'm out three F* days. Thanks. I QUIT!

The people who beat you out for Nightcrawler did not have way more time than you did: it sounds like your current roster strength is not quite high enough to efficiently score points in the arena. Nightcrawler went for about 1.9 million and in the basic arena that would take me about an hour a day.
You need to have the patience to build up to things, or you will get frustrated easily. If you cannot play the game over time and have reasonable and reachable goals for your progress, this probably isn't the game for you.
You'll get him if you play the game. Quit if you want but if you don't, don't grind arena for champs lol.
Max all your 3*s and you’ll be able to put up a lot more points with the infinite streak strategy in basic arena. Most players have gone all out for an arena champ and not scored high enough to get that champ. It’s almost a rite of passage with gaining MCOC experience.
- I think the lose of time is what upset me more then not having enough points. If I could do 2M points in just an hour a day, I don't think I would be as upset, some win, some lose, but I also lost three days.
You'll get him if you play the game. Quit if you want but if you don't, don't grind arena for champs lol.
- What other way is there aside from the dismal drop rates of the crystals (2% on average or 10%, if you buy a crystal, for a 4* chance) and the monthly stories?
If you play the game and are in an active alliance that runs 3 battlegroups in war you'll open a lot of 4* crystals. It's possible you won't ever get him. I still don't have wolverine. But I have most of the 4*s and a lot at max sig. You'll probably get him multiple times. Also, he'll be in the area again and if you really want him you'll be more equipped to get him next time. I haven't gone for many arena champs but actually did like 7.2 million or something the first time he was a basic champ. I won't grind for champs now.
Brooo hahahah. This is one of the easiest arenas ever. Incredibly small points. Not sure what your roster looks like but i could put up 4 mil in the basi arena easily
Why cant kabam implement this?
1) You didn't do a thorough research on previous 4* basic arena of the old champs since Killmonger (that's when 5* Featured was introduced). You will notice that all the old champs have a cutoff between 1.6 - 2mil. It means 1.7mil is not a safe area.
2) You didn't spend your units and arena boost on your top champs. From your post alone, I know your rosters aren't strong enough to grind for a 4* Basic casually. By casually, means you can still grind in a 4* basic without sacrificing much of your daily life activity especially sleep.
My advice, rank up your champs especially the 3* to max. If you wanna do the grind again, remember to use some arena boosts and units to refresh them. Be patience my friend.
PS: don't open your 4* crystal when you have 1. Hoarde them like up to 10 and open them all so that would help in lessening the stress a little bit. I mean, there must be at least 1 or 2 good champs out of 10.
The naysayers, haters and egotists can go jump off a bridge somewhere, we don't need you here.
But those that gave great advice and encouraged to press on, thank you, I really appreciate it. I think I will keep going a bit longer, see what I can make of it.
Thank you.
I've been in the OP's shoes before and it sucks. Especially when you're throwing your whole roster at it and every unit/boost you can to maximize points. I will say that as time passes and your roster grows, the grind only gets easier. I'm at a point now where I only use 4/40 champs in arenas (3* 4/40 in the 3* Featured and 4* 4/40 in the 4* Basic) and can get all of the milestones in only a few rounds.
It sucks, but it does get better.
For this reason, you're gonna quit? .Nightcrawler had one of the lowest cutoff. I don't what level are you or what your roster looks like. But I can say 1.7 million is such a low score only enough for getting 4-Star Abomi or Falcon. NC was about 1.9 M. I took 2.5 something. If you dont have enough champs to grind for a 4-Star basic arena. Instead play for 3 Star featured arena. And make a roster for 4-Star basic arena. You dont have to grind till day to night.
This is such a silly reason to quit. I think you should continue gaming
Which if no lag is five and a half hours or so
You just need more characters
If you cAnt take the time don’t complain
I know not the 1.7 but you made it sound like was not possible
Bro, Abomithing was 1.649M LOL!

He could only score 1.7 in 3 days means he's no pro. SO you should open every 4-Star hero crystals when you get it. Otherwise you can't upgrade your roster and you can't score much in arenas. If you were a pro, you can save crystals as you want
Work on your 3* , the more maxed 3* you have better chance of scoring higher
once you reach 3X multiplier use your arena boost on your top champs( only ) this way you will score more points
try to maintain infinity streak (google it) this way your multiplier will not reset to 1x
Visit forum, trucos page where notmally people predict the cutoffs for arena , that way you have a clear idea how much you need to grind.
Hope you get him next time.
you have to do at least late 1.9m above to land even the worst of champs, let alone nightcrawler!
